Preparing to Register

1.  Clear Restrictions (current and former students):   If you have been restricted from registering by the Student Honor Office, if you have any unpaid bills at the university, or if you are on Academic Suspension, you will not be allowed to register. Check with the Student Honor Office, KIM 230, (208) 496-1120, to have Honor Code restrictions removed. Check with Accounting, KIM 130, (208) 496-1050, to have financial restrictions removed. Check with the Student Records and Registration Office, KIM 190, (208) 496-1009, to have the academic suspension lifted.

2.  Admissions Clearance (new and former students):   All admitted applicants will attend one of the three academic tracks:  Winter/Spring, Spring/Fall, or Fall/Winter. Students may not enroll in traditional classes during their off-track semester, but may be eligible for some continuing education classes.  To be considered for admission, an application must be submitted to the Admissions Office, KIM 120, (208) 496-1020 by the application deadline.

3.  Academic Advising Clearance:   Some colleges or departments apply an advising restriction for continuing students each year.  To have this restriction cleared, students must meet with their respective satellite advising center.

4.  Ecclesiastical Endorsement:   Continuing students must obtain an updated ecclesiastical endorsement annually from their Winter Semester bishop.  For information or assistance, contact the Student Honor Office, KIM 270, (208) 496-1120.

5.  Registration Deposit:   A registration deposit of $60 must be received before new and former students will be allowed to register. This deposit is required of all students including those who will receive federal grants, loans, scholarships, and other financial aid.  For information or assistance, contact the Cashier's Office, KIM 130, (208) 496-1080.

6.  Plan your Schedule of Classes:   Continuing students should meet with their faculty advisors or their respective satellite advising center for assistance in planning a class schedule.  New students may obtain assistance from the Career and Academic Advising Center (CAC), KIM 250, (208) 496-1167, from their respective satellite advising center if they have a declared major, or from their faculty advisors.

8.  Deadline for Payment of Tuition and Fees:   Students may make tuition and fee payments at any time. However, full payment of tuition and fees is due in the Cashier's Office by the established Academic Deadlines. Thereafter, a late payment fee of 5% on the unpaid balance will be charged. Interest will then be charged at the rate of 1% per month on the unpaid balance until paid in full.

* Fee and Schedule Forms constitute the official registration and billing form of the university. Upon request to the Student Records and Registration Office (KIM 190), students will receive a Fee and Schedule Form showing: 1) the schedule of classes for which the student is currently registered, 2) the details of tuition and fees assessed, 3) any tuition payments, 4) any awarded grants and scholarships, approved BYU-Idaho loans, and other credits which will be applied on the first day of classes, 5) the amount which will be owed after payments and credits are deducted, and 6) appropriate payment deadlines and notes.

* A new class schedule and fee form may be requested with each change in registration or printed from the online Student Services System . Statements or billings will NOT be automatically mailed when registering or making changes unless requested by the student. Questions about payments should be directed to the Accounting Office, (208) 496-1050.
